edit box.

Greetings Jack and list. If you're used to Skype 3.x, and you've upgraded
to version 4.x, you may find it easier if you enable Compact View in
version 4. This will ensure that all new events, such as chats, file
transfers or contact requests, still appear in a separate window as was
the case with Skype version 3.
Press Alt+V to open the View menu, and press down arrow until you hear
either Compact View or Default View. If you hear Compact View, press
Enter to enable it. If you hear Default View, that means Compact View is
already active, and you needn't do anything.
To read chat messages using the JAWS scripts, press Alt plus any number on
the top row of your keyboard while in a chat window: Alt+1 for the most
recent message, Alt+2 for the next most recent, and so forth up till
Alt+0. If you press Alt and any number twice quickly, the entire text of
the chat will be displayed in a virtual viewer, from which you can then
select text to copy to a different location if you wish.
Hope this helps.
Marius

OK is it just me, or is the text chat feature in skype totally
inaccessible for Jaws users? I'm used to using MSN, also called Live
Messenger. I've had people try try to have a text chat with me over
Skype, and I just can't do it. What is the trick to doing this?
